Edward Snowden: Hero or Traitor?

Debate Information

I recently only just watched the movie "Snowden" and hence I thought it might be a good topic. As most of you are probably aware Edward Snowden was a former NSA contractor that leaked documents to the guardian in 2013. He had leaked documents regarding the PRISM and TEMPORA which are basically forms of global mass surveillance. What is your position? Is he a Hero for doing this or a Traitor?

    I think revealing secrets into how your OWN country spies on you and your information is an heroic and brave act.
